Adding images to the movie

  • Import images that have already been
    properly resized by choosing Import
    pictures under Capture Video.
  • Navigate to your folder that contains the
    images.
• If you don’t have a specific order for the images
  to appear in the presentation, you can select all
  of them at once by clicking on the first image
  and then click on the Ctrl + A button (shortcut
  for select all). With them all selected, drag and
  drop them into the boxes below. Those boxes
  are referred to as the storyboard. If you do
  have a specific order for them to appear in the
  presentation, you can drag and drop one at a
  time.
Adding titles to the movie


 • To add a title on the timeline, click on the
   Edit Movie choice on the left panel. From
   that menu, choose Make titles or credits.
